I replace mayonnaise with sour cream, and used the whole bunch of green onions, what a hit it was with friends and family.

Perfect! It tasted just like the one one my mom used to make! I used the new Philadelphia cream cheese with jalape?os for an added kick! I awesome!

I love this dip, only I use cream of shrimp soup instead of cream of mushroom unless I m making a large mold in which case I double the recipe and use cream of mushroom and a can of cream of shrimp.

I made this recipe year's ago for a get together. Everyone loved it. I borrowed the Taste of Home booklet to a friend & unfortunately it was never returned. I have been looking for this recipe since. I'm making it for a potluck, and can't wait to eat it!
